too big to fail. a look at the federal government that way some day. >>> and the criticism of president obama by boehner, may sounded like they took every jab at republicans and turned it back at him. not very original, but it's part of the rhythm of what we're into right now. that's in the "sideshow." you're watching "hardball" only on msnbc. >>> back to "hardball." now for the "sideshow" tonight. as the debt ceiling debate continues to consume both congress and the white house you may have noticed something about the republican rhetoric. their accusations against president obama sound remarkably similar to what the president himself said angrily about the republicans. here's president obama last week on the gop's complete unwillingness to budge during negotiations. >> i think that, you know, one of the questions that the republican party's going have to have itself is, can they say yes to anything? >> and here's speaker boehner last night. >> unfortunately the president would not take yes for an ans
